Once election dates are announced, it is a crime for any person to be disorderly at any political meeting/campaign with intention to prevent a party’s business of the day or be in possession of weapons or missiles. It is a crime punishable with maximum fine of N500,000 or 12 months imprisonment or both.

My authorities are sections 119 and 158 of the Electoral Act, 2010.
